Whilst i agree what goes on the pitch is down to the manager, but in a way if the board are not relasing transfer money to him Then it is down to them. The team is not good enough thats the problem.

Its not about their players not being better then ours its being a team and we suck as one. The team needed investment to make it much better and once you have a balanced team coaching becomes easier.

This was the last chance to win a trophy, something the players keep banging on about, they really should not need a manager to motivate them in it, at HT they should have pumped themselves up, but they could not.

A manager can only motivate a team so far in his control.
